8 CAPESTHORNE CLOSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average semi-detached house price in the Halton local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 8 CAPESTHORNE CLOSE sales from January 2000 and June 2005 have been plotted on the graph. A line has been extrapolated to show what the value of the property might have been over time, following each sale, had it maintained the same margin above or below the HPI (as a percentage). For example, the January 2000 sale was for 84% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 84% above the HPI over time, until the June 2005 sale, where it falls to 77% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 77% above the HPI.

What might 8 CAPESTHORNE CLOSE be worth now?

This is based on house price inflation of 73.4%, between June 2005 and February 2025, for semi-detached houses, in the Halton local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 73.4% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 8 CAPESTHORNE CLOSE of £196,000 on 3rd June 2005. For the value to have increased from £196,000 to £339,860 over the twenty years and four months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:
